V Cafe

I am so sorry to have to do this, but I am BAFFLED by all the happy reviews. Listen to me: this food was really, really bad.The pork dumplings were OLD. If you know the taste of old pork, you understand; there's a gaminess and greasiness that doesn't exist any other time.Bao buns came in bizarrely thick buns, and the pork, chicken, and tofu were all wildly overcooked.The banh mi chicken was so overcooked it was crunchy, and the bread was so dry it fell apart upon being picked up, as if it were days old.The egg rolls were greasy and dry and unflavored.Even the Thai tea was lacking in flavor. I don't know how they managed that, but they did.I am SO disappointed. We were deeply hoping for a good Vietnamese place near us, and this has left us just disgusted all around.

I hadn't been here in 'way too long. This evening they are putting up their festive Christmas tree (none of this October nonsense for these nice people!) ASA I walked in, the owners offered me a refreshing cup of cold water. Hospitality like this is rare, especially these days. Perfect tofu spring rolls. PERFECT. I tried the Tofu Bowl with rice. SO GOOD. My companion (who never complains but never says anything nice either) remarked THREE TIMES how good her pho was. There's food here for everyone, from committed carnivores to very selective vegans. I summoned all the willpower at my command and did NOT order the chocolate milkshake. Next time, I'm starting with that.

Tasty and fresh pho. I'd like to see more onions and cilantro next time. I did order sprouts and jalapeño slices (you only get 2 and one little lime slice) maybe customers don't use all the sprouts. I have tried the boa before. It's really good too. I'll be back to try something new.

Best BBH in Austin. I have lived here since 1980, so I have had them all.. Simple broth and meats. Its not authentic with the pork blood or pork knuckles but I dont eat those anyways.

Review is for take-out via GrubHub. Nut allergy friendly for the dishes I ordered. We ordered the bun bo hue with extra noodle and the pho dac biet (special) with extra noodle. I did not see any bun bo hue extra noodles when we got home unfortunately. The extra pho noodles were clearly in another container, as the main containers have the noodles under the vegetables. Highly suggest heating the broth to near boiling to cook the meat enough if you are driving 10 or more minutes away. Otherwise you risk eating raw beef. Normal for any take out pho.The portions were excellent and the flavors were solid. Nice little containers of Sriracha and hoisin provided. I would like to have some lime included. The pho was solid. The bun bo hue was a little thinner and more oily than others I've had, but also was very tasty. I would recommend for scratching the authentic pho itch!

The food is fresh and prepared as order Flavor is very good and restaurant is on a great and convenient location. Prices are very reasonable.

I was craving pho so I ordered some to go and was not disappointed. I can't speak on the service much since I did not dine in but my food was ready pretty quick and the inside of the restaurant looked nice. My food was really good! The broth was pretty good and my meal was a good size. It's hard to judge pho because it pretty much completely depends on the broth but I think this place was really good.

Excellent spring rolls, and also loved their beef pho, and chicken vermicelli was fantastic. And not expensive. Definitely will be coming back!

Highly recommended, The noodles are excellent great choice for lunch. Try the shakes and the coffee all good.

I drive by here often and finally decided to stop in bc I was starving and it was open! Lucky for me! At the suggestion of the man at the counter I ordered the chicken pho to go. OMG this was do delicious! I intended to only eat half, but couldn't stop. So good, I will be back!
